Sophie trusted her brother Geoff more than anyone else because he kept secrets and other stuff to himself and did not tell anyone. The main reason for this was that he was introvert and was lost in himself. Derek also used to make fun of her and his father was short tempered who did not entertain such things. From her perspective, Geoff symbolises an elder brother who has grown up and visited places unknown to her. As an elder brother he also warns Sophie from dreaming of Danny Casey because he knows that she will land into trouble when his sister is faced with bitter truth of life.
Sophie's father was like any normal middle class father. He had gained a lot of experience in life by working hard.

Recently I watched the interview of Anupam Kher on a famous TV show. He was interviewed for his latest super hit film “The Kashmir Files”. This film is not a biopic on Anupam Kher, but from the true incident on which this film is based, he himself has also gone through a few years ago. That’s why the film is very close to Anupam’s heart. He exclaimed “The first and greatest tragedy of the Kashmiri Pandits was that they were forced to flee their homeland”. The cultural, poetic, and mystical ties that once bound the Pandits to Kashmiris of other faiths were brutally sundered by Islamic fundamentalists. Now, only their memories, mostly bitter memories, remain. In this interview we see some part of their pain because only they know what has happened to them. Kashmiri Pandits have achieved great success by going to other states of the country after being expelled from Kashmir. In this interview of star actor Anupam, we get to know about the tremendous turmoil and pain in his personal life.
